He could understand the meaning of those words individually, but when put together, he couldn't understand a single sentence.

What's exciting?

Source?

What are all these things? And aren't they supposed to be distributing books? Why are they setting up those things?

As a Sand Village ninja, he couldn't understand any of this.

Suna was itching with curiosity, but because of his position, he couldn't go up and check. He could only sit there and occasionally glance at them "inadvertently".

Akabane saw everything, smiled to himself, and said nothing.

Young people, don't be so naive!

Seeing Jiraiya begin to draw, he also sat down and started to draw—he deliberately sat sideways to ensure that someone would see it "inadvertently".

With just a few strokes, a preliminary image immediately emerges.

When Sasuke's gaze swept over, he was immediately unable to look away.

With each stroke, the image grew richer and richer, and a look of awe filled his eyes.

Because the painting depicts their village, Sunagakure!

The more Suna looked at the painting, the more shocked he became. The painting was so realistic that it almost brought Sunagakure to life.

"What are these guys...?"

Suna looked at the books that Kurama Gen and the others were carrying up, and really wanted to go up and see what they were.

"I must resist; these things cannot tempt me!"

He gritted his teeth and looked away.

After that, Sasuke didn't look at it again, but focused intently on the training field.

Akabane drew for a while and was surprised to find that the guy wasn't looking at him anymore.

Despite being very curious, he managed to restrain himself... No wonder he can succeed with such willpower!

But I have another trick up my sleeve.

Akabane smiled slightly, picked up another piece of paper, quietly wrote a line of words, and handed it to Kurama Sangen.

Chapter 113 Forbidden? Or...?

"A child disguised as a Sand Village ninja, taking a comic book out for a stroll... what does that mean?"

Upon seeing the note, Anma Mountain Source didn't quite understand its meaning.

However, out of trust, he did not hesitate, quietly put away the note, and withdrew it from the inside.

Then, I ordered a few ninjas.

"You used transformation magic to disguise yourselves as..."

He relayed Akabane's orders verbatim.

Their strength is at the Chunin level, so infiltration and intelligence gathering at a normal level are no problem for them.

Not long after, the group left.

Suna noticed it briefly, then dismissed it.

This is Sunagakure Village.

If the people of Konoha dare to cause trouble, the Anbu will handle it. His task is to keep an eye on these people and observe what they are up to.

Is it really just about making people read books?

This reason is utterly absurd!

While training his chakra, Sunabu kept a close eye on Akabane and the others' every move.

A few minutes later, he suddenly heard a series of noisy footsteps.

what's the situation?

Sasuke looked warily toward the training ground gate...

Next, he saw a group of children rush in.

"It's a training ground!"

"Is this where the comic book is?"

The children looked around excitedly.

"Please be quiet, everyone, and don't disturb the ninja training."

Akabane stood up and rebuked him righteously.

Suna was stunned, completely bewildered.

These children...

"Children, the Chunin Exams are just around the corner. You don't want your noise to disturb the ninjas, do you?"

Kurama Gen said kindly, "If you want to read comics, you can read them outside, but you have to return them after you're done."

"Okay, thank you, uncle!"

The children lowered their voices and said in unison.

"Children, come outside and don't make noise."

"Yes, thank you, uncle."

The children happily ran out of the venue, comic books in hand.

Suna was dumbfounded. These children came for their books. So, the ninja who just went out was doing this?

He sensed something was wrong and got up to walk towards Akabane and the others.

"What exactly are your books?"

Sha Jie's expression was serious.

The connection between the painting, the book, and the child made him feel uneasy—perhaps the teacher's plan was wrong from the start.

"Hmm, if what you see is a comic book."

As Akabane spoke, he casually picked out a book for him.

Suna glanced at the cover.

One Piece?

What's this!

He took it and turned to the first page.

A sea, a ship, and a little boy wearing a straw hat—the art style is vastly different from the aerial view of Sunagakure that Akabane is currently drawing.

Page 2, Page 3...

Suna's expression gradually turned serious. This was not a book that imparted knowledge at all, but rather some boring storybooks!

Hmm, let's criticize it again!

He continued to look through the pages. The ocean was completely foreign to him, so he had no way of knowing whether what was depicted was real or absurd fantasy.

"Devil Fruits? These things... are truly absurd fantasies."

Suna sneered inwardly.

If such a thing existed on the sea, the Land of Water would have already dominated it. Why would it need to remain confined to a corner, unable to launch an attack on land for so long?

These kinds of boring books must be banned!

He thought to himself.

However, while thinking this, he had unknowingly flipped to the last chapter.

"It's quite pretty."

Suna put down the manga. This kind of strange adventure story on the sea was indeed very attractive to them, who had lived in the desert all their lives and had never seen the sea.

Turning to the last page, he put down the book and began to ponder how to deal with the problem at hand.

Prohibition? Or...?

Before he could make a decision, he was momentarily distracted and heard a noisy conversation around him.

Looking up, outside the small shed, dozens of genin who had finished their training were holding books and flipping through them with great interest.

"what?"

Suna was stunned. When did these people arrive here? He hadn't noticed them at all!

Illusion?

He looked at Akabane warily.

"Don't get me wrong, Sasuke-kun. I've been drawing since just now."

Akabane pointed at the painting in front of him.

The painting was now complete. In the village of Sunagakure, a figure carrying a gourd stood suspended in mid-air on the sand.

"Feel sorry."

He offered a half-hearted apology, then gripped the comic book tightly, observing the genin around him who were also reading it.

Of the many Sand Ninja, only a few became addicted to it.

A small number of people glanced at it, then put the comic down, clearly not interested in it.

Just as Sakae breathed a sigh of relief, he saw those people looking around for a while before suddenly gathering behind Jiraiya and Yuhi Shinku.

"Oh!!!"

"This...this kind of painting is really..."

Those who were originally leaving quickly surrounded Jiraiya, Kurenai Yuhi, and the others.

Before long, Jiraiya had more and more people around him.

In terms of painting skills, Shirou Yuhi is naturally superior, but in this aspect, Jiraiya is indeed far better than him.

"Is this also a comic?"

The ninjas were stunned, completely unaware that such a thing existed in the world.

"Of course, they are unappreciated art."

Jiraiya glanced at Akabane and said in an admiring tone, "Fortunately, there are still people secretly bearing the burden and exploring the direction of the future."

"I see, this is truly an incredible painting."

They really wanted to watch, but felt embarrassed.

With so many people gathered around watching this, it's almost embarrassing...

"Well, since you're the first readers, I'll give you this painting."

Jiraiya was clever; he took down a finished illustration and waved it around, asking, "Who wants it?"

"I me me!"

"Give me……"

The group of people, who were initially hesitant and shy, quickly began to scramble for it.

Suna took a closer look, then his face turned bright red.

He took a deep breath and then yelled, "Stop!"

Instantly, the entire room fell silent.

"All Sunagakure genin, return to training, immediately!"

Suna said seriously.

"Forehead……"
